is everything being rumored. The principals of the Jamal Crawford deal are great (see ya crazy eyed Kurt). I almost don't care what lousy contracts we have to absord if it winds up being a S & T. Figure Crawford, JYD for KT & F-Wil. Fine by me!!!
Using the MLE on Etan Thomas would be icing on the cake. You're talking about:
C: Nazi, Doleac
PF: Sweets, Etan Thomas, JYD (that's three dudes who go after the ball!!)--Obviously, they'll be times when two of these three are on the court at the same time.
SF: Tim Thomas, Penny
SG: Houston, Anderson*
PG: Marbury, Barrett*

*Not primary backup.

The wild card here is effectively getting Crawford 30 minutes a night. If Houston continues to be hurt, it's easy. But if Houston is healthy, Crawford is capable of playing 12 minutes at the point (perhaps allowing Marbury to play some "2" a bit) 20 minutes at shooting guard & they'll be time when then go small & allow Crawford to play SF vs. some SF's (not the Jamal Mashburn sized ones).

Though I'd do a naked jig in my driveway if this happened, I do have one concern about Crawford. his career thus far & his skill set is eerily similar to Larry Hughes (which doesn't bode well).

Stll I take my chances.

I will dance naked on my driveway if we can get Shaq. I really really would. Imagine that!
